Exactly solvable model reveals how trapped light can create magnetic order in one-dimensional spin chains

Exactly solvable model reveals how trapped light can create magnetic order in one-dimensional spin chains

A research team wanted to better understand how the forces between particles inside a material change. They discovered that by confining one-dimensional classical spin chains inside a mirror box cavity with light, they c…
